Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, y'know that I want your loving But my logic tells me it ain't never gonna happen And then my defenses say I didn't want it anyway But you know sometimes I'm a liar [Pre-Chorus] Could you ever want me to love you? Could you ever want me to care? Disregard my nervousness Please ignore my vacant stares [Chorus] Cause just what I've been through Is nothing like where I'm going to Give me some sign to pursue a promise And you're unhappy, this is only a guess [Verse 2] Do you know what it's like to hate When it's way down deep inside? Oh God, I hate what's been done to my life I could rule the pain, I could rule the night Or would it ruin my salvation, ruin my mind Rule your pains, rulers of the night Ruin your salvation, ruin your mind [Verse 3] You know that I want your loving Well, then Mr. Logic, Mr. Logic tells me it ain't never gonna happen And then my defenses say, well, I didn't want it anyway But you know sometimes I'm a liar [Pre-Chorus] Could you ever want me to love you? Could you ever want me to care? Disregard my nervousness Ple-please ignore my vacant stares [Chorus] Just what I've been through Is nothing like where I'm going to Give me some sign to pursue a promise, a promise And you're unhappy and you're unhappy And you're unhappy and you're unhappy, this is only a guess
